"Now this is the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. 2 And he said: "The LORD came from Sinai,And dawned on them from Seir;He shone forth from Mount Paran,And He came with ten thousands of saints;From His right hand Came a fiery law for them. 3 Yes, He loves the people;All His saints are in Your hand;They sit down at Your feet;everyone receives Your words. 4 Moses commanded a law for us,A heritage of the congregation of Jacob. 5 And He was King in Jeshurun,When the leaders of the people were gathered,All the tribes of Israel together. 6 "Let Reuben live, and not die,Nor let his men be few." 7 And this he said of Judah: "Hear, LORD, the voice of Judah,And bring him to his people;Let his hands be sufficient for him,And may You be a help against his enemies." 8 And of Levi he said: "Let Your Thummim and Your Urim be with Your holy one,Whom You tested at Massah,And with whom You contended at the waters of Meribah, 9 Who says of his father and mother,'I have not seen them';Nor did he acknowledge his brothers,Or know his own children;For they have observed Your word And kept Your covenant. 10 They shall teach Jacob Your judgments,And Israel Your law.They shall put incense before You,And a whole burnt sacrifice on Your altar. 11 Bless his substance, LORD,And accept the work of his hands;Strike the loins of those who rise against him,And of those who hate him, that they rise not again." 12 Of Benjamin he said: "The beloved of the LORD shall dwell in safety by Him,Who shelters him all the day long;And he shall dwell between His shoulders." 13 And of Joseph he said: "Blessed of the LORD is his land,With the precious things of heaven, with the dew,And the deep lying beneath, 14 With the precious fruits of the sun,With the precious produce of the months, 15 With the best things of the ancient mountains,With the precious things of the everlasting hills, 16 With the precious things of the earth and its fullness,And the favor of Him who dwelt in the bush.Let the blessing come'on the head of Joseph,And on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers.' 17 His glory is like a firstborn bull,And his horns like the horns of the wild ox;Together with them He shall push the peoples To the ends of the earth;They are the ten thousands of Ephraim,And they are the thousands of Manasseh." 18 And of Zebulun he said: "Rejoice, Zebulun, in your going out,And Issachar in your tents! 19 They shall call the peoples to the mountain;There they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness;For they shall partake of the abundance of the seas And of treasures hidden in the sand." 20 And of Gad he said: "Blessed is he who enlarges Gad;He dwells as a lion,And tears the arm and the crown of his head. 21 He provided the first part for himself,Because a lawgiver's portion was reserved there.He came with the heads of the people;He administered the justice of the LORD,And His judgments with Israel." 22 And of Dan he said: "Dan is a lion's whelp;He shall leap from Bashan." 23 And of Naphtali he said: "O Naphtali, satisfied with favor,And full of the blessing of the LORD,Possess the west and the south." 24 And of Asher he said: "Asher is most blessed of sons;Let him be favored by his brothers,And let him dip his foot in oil. 25 Your sandals shall be iron and bronze;As your days, so shall your strength be. 26 "There is no one like the God of Jeshurun,Who rides the heavens to help you,And in His excellency on the clouds. 27 The eternal God is your refuge,And underneath are the everlasting arms;He will thrust out the enemy from before you,And will say, 'Destroy!' 28 Then Israel shall dwell in safety,The fountain of Jacob alone,In a land of grain and new wine;His heavens shall also drop dew. 29 Happy are you, O Israel!Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD,The shield of your help And the sword of your majesty!Your enemies shall submit to you,And you shall tread down their high places."

"Now Moses, with the elders of Israel, commanded the people, saying: “Keep all the commandments which I command you today. 2 And it shall be, on the day when you cross over the Jordan to the land which the LORD your God is giving you, that you shall set up for yourselves large stones, and whitewash them with lime. 3 You shall write on them all the words of this law, when you have crossed over, that you may enter the land which the LORD your God is giving you, ‘a land flowing with milk and honey,’[a] just as the LORD God of your fathers promised you. 4 Therefore it shall be, when you have crossed over the Jordan, that on Mount Ebal you shall set up these stones, which I command you today, and you shall whitewash them with lime. 5 And there you shall build an altar to the LORD your God, an altar of stones; you shall not use an iron tool on them. 6 You shall build with whole stones the altar of the LORD your God, and offer burnt offerings on it to the LORD your God. 7 You shall offer peace offerings, and shall eat there, and rejoice before the LORD your God. 8 And you shall write very plainly on the stones all the words of this law.” 9 Then Moses and the priests, the Levites, spoke to all Israel, saying, “Take heed and listen, O Israel: This day you have become the people of the LORD your God. 10 Therefore you shall obey the voice of the LORD your God, and observe His commandments and His statutes which I command you today.” Curses Pronounced from Mount Ebal 11 And Moses commanded the people on the same day, saying, 12 “These shall stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people, when you have crossed over the Jordan: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin; 13 and these shall stand on Mount Ebal to curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali. 14 “And the Levites shall speak with a loud voice and say to all the men of Israel: 15 ‘Cursed is the one who makes a carved or molded image, an abomination to the LORD, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and sets it up in secret.’ “And all the people shall answer and say, ‘Amen!’ 16 ‘Cursed is the one who treats his father or his mother with contempt.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 17 ‘Cursed is the one who moves his neighbor’s landmark.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 18 ‘Cursed is the one who makes the blind to wander off the road.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 19 ‘Cursed is the one who perverts the justice due the stranger, the fatherless, and widow.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 20 ‘Cursed is the one who lies with his father’s wife, because he has uncovered his father’s bed.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 21 ‘Cursed is the one who lies with any kind of animal.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 22 ‘Cursed is the one who lies with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 23 ‘Cursed is the one who lies with his mother-in-law.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 24 ‘Cursed is the one who attacks his neighbor secretly.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 25 ‘Cursed is the one who takes a bribe to slay an innocent person.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’ 26 ‘Cursed is the one who does not confirm all the words of this law by observing them.’ “And all the people shall say, ‘Amen!’”
